Cutting Tool – Spool
Working with the Cutting Tool
– Spool
Never replace the plastic thread with a metal wire. There is risk of
injuries!
When you operate the machine for the first time, pull the plastic
thread ends out until they almost reach the radius of the protective
hood. Push the release button in the middle of the spool with your
finger while pulling on both ends of the plastic thread.
The rotating threads will wear out or break after a while. This is
noticeable by a poor cutting performance. While the spool is moving
(press the throttle!), press the spool against the ground or a solid
surface. By pressing the release button in the middle of the spool,
approx. 3 cm of thread will be unwound. If the plastic threads are
torn, press the release button several times in order to reach the
optimum cutting thread radius.
Cutting with the Spool
To perform a clean cut, slowly move the machine from one side to
the other. Hold the machine with an inclination of 20
– 30°.
For taller grass, it is recommended to cut the grass gradually in
several passes. First cut off the tips. By doing this, the engine will
not be overloaded.
Make sure to keep the cutting thread away from hard surfaces,
otherwise the cutting thread will wear out very quick.
Avoid touching wood plants with the cutting thread. Any damage of
the bark can lead to the death of the plant.
Use the plastic thread spool for a clean cut also at uneven edges,
fencing posts, and trees.
Carefully advance the trimming thread to an obstacle, and use the
tip of the thread to cut around the obstacle. When the trimming
thread comes into contact with stones, trees, and walls, the thread
wears out or breaks off ahead of time. In this case, it might happen
that the plastic thread disappeared into the string spool housing and
the automatic trimming thread feed will not work anymore.
